I had my spect scan performed today at columbia. As some of you may know I've been somewhat concerned that these problems may be due to CJD and not lyme. I checked some literature by Dr. Fallon and the heterogenous pattern seen with lyme is not specific and is also seen in CJD,CFS, Vascular dementia, ect. The question I have is ARE there other patterns in the spect scan that are more specific to lyme and inconsistant with other diseases?
I know it's a tall order. Hope somone can help!
